I still take it now (Have you checked out the FAQ, the details are all
on there?) Some people need to take it forever, in other cases some can
be weaned off it and the body continues enzyme production unsupported.
I'm slowly reducing my intake now after three and a half years on it -
down from 600mg per day to 450.
However, I had no real side effects so would have happily continued
taking it. The benefits far outweighed the almost non-existent
drawbacks.
